 ### Pumpkin
 
-The bundled [`base16-pumpkin`](schemes/base16/pumpkin.yaml) and [`base16-pumpkin-light`](schemes/base16/pumpkin-light.yaml) palettes come from the sibling Terebi project. Dark Pumpkin uses brown, cream and vivid autumn accents; Pumpkin Light uses parchment, brown ink and deeper orange, persimmon, gold and olive accents. All light text/accent slots exceed 4.5:1 contrast against the background.
+The bundled [`base16-pumpkin`](schemes/base16/pumpkin.yaml) and [`base16-pumpkin-light`](schemes/base16/pumpkin-light.yaml) palettes come from the sibling Terebi project. Dark Pumpkin uses brown, cream and vivid autumn accents; Pumpkin Light uses parchment, brown ink and deeper orange, persimmon, toasted amber, caramel and olive accents. Its ANSI cyan slot uses caramel so inverted terminal bars stay warm rather than olive. All light text/accent slots exceed 4.5:1 contrast against the background.
 
 `make install` installs both palettes automatically. To install the palettes and updated wrapper without syncing repositories or reloading the appearance agent, then save and select their named pair:
